HEALTHFUL THINKING

Morbid fixation ‘on the functioning of the body is not the way to true

health, says an announcement, from

the department of national health anu welfare. Thedepantment quotes a lea-

‘ding authority, who describes jealth

as a “perfectly. natural and uncon- sicous state of ming and body, evi- dent in a sense of well-being.” A

“healthy person, it is pointed out, en-

joys activity, has an exploratory in- terest in life, and is well fitted to stand up to adversity, to endure and

- to overcome difficulties, whether men-

. tal or physical.

- -_“y" is PLAY AND HEALTH

While there’s a thrill in watching a sports everit, there’s~more health -in actual participation in games. This re- minder ig issued by the department of national health and welfare, Ot- tawa, in a bulletin which calls on those interested in health to ‘climb

down from the grandstand and take

part in some game.” Fun and fitness, the department points out, go hand In|? hand. ‘

MADE IN CANADA

An Urgent Problem

AUTHORITIES IN AGRICULTURE are of the opinion that the im- portance of soil, conservation cannot be overestimated~in Canada today. That the Dominion government is fully aware of the serious nature of this problem is demonstrated by the extensive work which has been undertaken

—under_the P.F.R.A.-in-many-distriets-in-Western-Canada. In addition, there

NE Te eR reduced by 50 million dollars for: Saskatchewan farmers, $3 “million dollars

are many organizations which have recognized the need for action in this matter and a great deal of valuable information has been placed at the dis- ~posal of Canadian farmers. Reliable advice has been made available through provincial departments of agriculture, district agricultural representatives,

agricultural magazines, universities and numerous other sources, and farm-

, ers who have problems of soil erosion have the advantage of these services in combatting them,

‘Cash Income - Is Reduced —

A short-time ago the Royal Bank of Canada publish- ed an interesting and informative article on the sub- ject of ‘soil conservation and that article has been BB ere: by a pamphlet on the same Subject written g@ Money by Saving Sc sil” the booklet

. deals with many interesting paths of the problem of soil erosion and the methods of counteracting this grave menace to Canadian agriculture. Among other things, it deals with the subject of cash income from farm products. --During the-first six-months of this year, the writer states-cash income was

for ‘the farmers of Alberta, and’ seven million in the province of Manitoba. This reduction is not attributed entirely to lack of soil. conservation. but it is pointed out that in North Dakota a survey of 197 farmers revealed that 271,000 more bushels of wheat had been produced on 8, 000 less acres of land after measures had been taken to combat soil erosion. 2 ° s 8 ° <a "i It is admitted that soil erosion is just one fac- A Commendable tor determining the success or failure of a sea-|. : e DRL POA son's crop.

Today’s strug- gle by Canada’s farmers is no flash-in-the-pan, ending in another beginning of the cycle of decline. Besides preserving their land today for their own benefit, and as an inheritance for their children, they must see that their children are taught how to continue the good work.” In publishing informa- tion and advice on this important subject the Royal Bank-is performing a

“The purpose of this expedition. is primarily the training of naval units, and any effects these. operations might have on the balance of con- flicting claims to territories will be incidental only.”

i TRADE AGREEMENT

Russia Negotiating On Large Scale

LONDON.—Great Britain and Rus- sia are negotiating a large scale trade agreement and Russia is now considering specific. suggestions. of- fered by the British delegates, well informed sources said.

; According to. reports, the proposed

. : ement would be on a much wid-

er scale than previous arrangements

between Britain and Russia.

It was understood that Russia had

not asked for credit as a basis for

purchase of goods in this country but

must be prepared to supply goods in

exchange, along with a relatively

small payment in gold.

Russian delegates have indicated,

“ informants said, that they are espec-

jally interested in getting from Bri-

LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y.--The Union of South Aftica served notice that it will annex the mandated territory of Southwest Africa whether the Unit- ed Nations general assembly ap- proves it or not.

een council replaces the wartime combined food ‘board managed. United States, United Kingdom and Canada. The new council numbers some twenty different nations not in- cluding Russia which refused to join.

In 1945, the allotment of sugar per person by the combined food board among the,three countries was 70.8 pounds per person. ;

In 1946, the allotment was increas- ed to 72.8 pounds per person.

In 1947-it is hoped the allotment willbe raised to as.much at least as 75 pounds per person, and possibly to 80 pounds. That would still be about 18 pounds less per person annually than Canadians and Americans used in pre-war years when the per capita consumption of the two countries was around 98 pounds. “a ae

of’ 2,000: pounds (short tons). would mean 1,008,000,000 pounds, equivalent to pre-war consumption. But in the interim, there has been a tremendous increased demand per capita for sugar due to increased public pur- chasing power plus also some ‘in- crease in population,

Any increase in the allotment to Canada, the United: States and the United Kingdom by. the International Emergency: Food «council. will be largely due ‘to revival of beet sugar growing in Europe. Before the war, Europe was largely. self-sufficient in sugar from this domestic source. The war cut it off. But Huropean sugar beet growing is rapidly coming back.

Canada has: also greatly increased beet ,sugar production from the. pre- war five-year average, 1935-39, of 141;700,000-pounds~to~anaverage~of close to 180,000,000 pounds average for the last six years.

Estimates of Canada’s 1946 beet sugar production indicate 4 total of 194,500,000 to 199,500,000 pounds.

Two hundred million pounds of beet sugar is only from’ a. quarter to a fifth of Canada’s wartime rationed sugar use. For example, in 1945, whereas beet sugar production was 165,000,000 pounds, Canada imported 846,700,000 pounds of. raw sugar; total available refined sugar including beet sugar and net imports or ex- ports, was 980,400,000 pounds and actual domestic sales of refined sugar were 886,1007000 pounds, :

All world sugar production is pool- ed,/In 1946, the United States and her island possessions contributed 61 per cent. of the quota, the United Kingdom 25 per cent. and Canada 18 per cent.

DOES NOT’ APPROVE

United States Will Oppose Present Plan For Europe Food Fund

LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y.—Reported United - States opposition © virtually ruled out any likelihood that the United Nations would approve a pro- posed $400,000,000- emergency food fund to help ‘meet Europe’s food def- icits after the expiration of UNRRA,

Shortly after Dean Acheson, acting secretary of state, indicated in. Washe. ington that the United States would oppose the proposal put before the United Nations by F. H. LaGuardia, director-general of UNRRA, inform- ed quarters said members of the United States: delegation were under- stood to have taken the position that any further aid to Europe after the expiration of UNRRA _ should be handled by a national rather than an international basis.

This was interpreted as meaning that the United States would in the future handle her own relief distri-

‘| -bution in. Europe. ~ .

Under Mr. LaGuardia’s proposal the United States would be expected to contribufe 49 per cent. of the total — $400,000,000. It was generally agreed that the plan would not be put into effect if. the United States refused to take part.

The bell cut short his thoughts. He scampered out with the rest, but he did not want to play, though there had been a fresh fall of snow and the boys were planning a snowball fight. He wanted to get home, be- cause he felt, inside, like his foot felt: when the shoe rubbed the heel.

He jumped up and went to the hookcase. Mother read to him a little each night; and in the last three years he had had stories in his books read many times over. He knew them all by heart, but. at each read- ing they seemed new again. When mother read, it was not a lot of sounds like in school, but a_sticces-. sion of. pictures. like a movie, It was as if he weré standing right there, and seeing the boys and girls, houses and ships, animals and birds. It was exciting and thrilling,

But mother was busy at the stove. “Not now, dear,” she said.

Again bafflement. Junior wandered back to the living room and stretched

He stopped at a full page illustration showing 4 goat with a long white beard and great twisted horns. On the same page, lower down, were acat.and a dog. E —-The goat was familiar. He was the hero of several of the books, and Jun- ior had seen him so often in his mental-movie-picture-show that every detail was old and friendly..: = The caption at the bottom caught his eye. “Just some more printing like in school,’ he thought, looking at ,it contemptuously, Suddenly the beginning of it began to stand out clearer, It almost_seemed to leap up. It said: “Beardie—.” 2 He Beardie? Beardie? Why, . Beardie was the name of the goat in, the story! Junior had often seen him in his moving pictures. And, of course, the goat in his mind looked just like the goat in the picture. The picture goat: was right above the printing which said, ‘“‘Beardie”. So the print- ing, the picture in the book, and his own ‘moving picture were all the same thing! : ee

Manufacturers Are Asked To Step Up Production

OTTAWA.—Shortening, which has been in drastically short supply in Canada for months, is expected to improve markedly during the next six weeks,. prices board officials said.

Manufacturers have been asked to produce on a basis of 100 per cent. of their 1941- performance. N

In addition, a large shipment of shortening from Argentina, which Canada obtained during October and which was held up at New York due to “a longshoremen’s strike, started to arrive in Canada recently.

Officials stated it was not certain exactly how these factors would af- ‘fect the-situation, but said they be-} lieved the shortening picture would be “brightened considerably” in a few weeks, barring unforseen devel- opments. .

Junior was interested, He looked at the printing dgain. It said, ‘““Beard- je and-his friends.” Then he under- stood. The dog-and-the-eat were the goaf’s friends: He had often seen them before, too.

His eye wandered to the ‘page op- posite which was. filled with large type. Suddenly, near the top, there stood. out “Beardie”, again. For a moment there flashed into Junior’s mind an exact picture of the goat, beard and all. He went on “Beardie —ran —up—the— — —gangplank.” He hesitated on “gangplank”.

CANADA WORLD'S LARGEST _ EXPORTER OF WHEAT .

Most of the world’s wheat produc- |.

country is China which grows about one billion one hundred million bush- els.a year. Russia comes second, with an average of one billion bushels a year. The United States is third, with an average around 900 million bush- els a year, and Canada is usually fourth, with more than 400 million on the average. While Canada is but the fourth largest wheat producer in the world, she holds.a distinguished place. She is the largest exporter of wheat and produces the highest qual- ity wheat.

One of the many thrilling exper- iences of Canadians who make a holi- day or business trip to the Pacific coast is to; behold the ingenuity of the engineers who built and designed the Connaught tunnel, which pierces the Selkirks. It is 5.02 miles in length and its construction shorténed the railway line 4.3 “miles, It was commenced in 1913 and finished in 1916,

South African engineers have started the construction of a tunnel which will be eight miles*in length to im- prove the railway line between Cape- town and JolHannesburg.
